Merci beaucoup! J'ai vécu une expérience très précieuse, et j'espère continuer à poursuivre le français à l'avenir. Merci beaucoup!
Speaking French gives us great opportunities like able to make friends in different groups and allow us to communicate with different groups. I recognized my ability of French and thought I need to learn more through other competitors
The "Concours D'art Oratoire" has been a remarkable experience this year despite virtual circumstances.
I have come to realize that learning French was the best investment I had ever made because it paid off with a scholarship to the university of my choice. I was at the point of dropping it 2 years ago and now I try to urge other students to invest in French so that they can reap the rewards.
Coming from a rather Anglophone part of Canada, participating in the Finals contest in Ottawa made me realize how prevalent the French language is in Canada and how important it is in Canada's history.
It exposed me to a French-speaking atmosphere which I would not have the opportunity to experience in Alberta!
